Dry Yong Tau Foo Mee Tai Mak

Yong Tau Foo is fermented bean curd stuffed with fish paste. No, we did not make the Yong Tau Foo, Rapunzel get them fresh from the market this morning.

This is an Hakka dish usually drenched in clear and soupy broth and dipped with chili or sweet sauce but Snow White cooked it in a different style with Mee Tai Mak.

The Yong Tau Foo is pan fried till golden brown, boiled over the vegetables and Mee Tai Mak till soft, drained and set aside for later used. Heat the oil, saute the garlic, ginger then add in 2 cup of water mixed with dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce & sesame oil. Thicken the sauce with starch and the sauce is ready to pour over the Mee Tai Mak. Toss the sauce with the Mee Tai Mak then add in the Yong Tau Foo and garnished with coriander, spring onion and fried shallot. Tah Dah! Dry Yong Tau Foo Mee Tai Mak is ready to serve.


Love the sauce and it is yummy to go with the crispy fried Yong Tau Foo. I cleared my plate within 15 minutes.
